I count the number of time I have tasted humus, that too when I am in other countries. Back home it must be my sambal belacan and food with plenty of chili padi.

That said, I should try out your recipe. I do buy chick peas and these are there in my pantry. Fabulous dip and I will love to pair it with some salted crackers.
